Lexical semantic space models have recently been investigated to automatically derive the
meaning (semantics) of information based on natural language usage. In a semantic space, a term
can be considered as a concept ...

How to automatically capture a significant portion of relevant background knowledge and keep it up-to-date
has been a challenging problem encountered in current research on logic based information retrieval. This ...

Domain specific information retrieval has become in demand. Not only domain experts, but also average non-expert users are interested in searching domain specific (e.g., medical and health) information from online resources. ...

This research study investigates the concept of workplace information
